Welcome to the Website of Lewisham Chess Club

Who we are

Lewisham Chess Club is a friendly chess club in South East London. Our membership is currently around 50, and we are always looking to get more people involved.
Newcomers, novices and experts alike, are always welcome to attend any evening - just turn up!

​

We have teams active in 14 competitions across 3 different Leagues and can offer competitive chess for all standards of player.

Location and facilities

​

Our Club is located inside Catford Cricket and Sports Club in Penerley Rd, Catford, about 5 minutes walk from Catford and Catford Bridge Railway Stations and is directly off Bromley Road which is served by several bus routes.

​

There is ample on-street parking and the Club itself has a small amount of off-street parking and a small and friendly Bar for the use of members and visitors alike.

​

The entrance to the premises is located through the far right door signposted 'Members Bar', and we play in the function room accessed through the bar itself

Following Government advice relating to precautions around gatherings of people in Public places and especially given the age demographic of many Chess players all League and Club Chess activity has now been suspended.

​

The Chess Club will be closed for at least the next 4 weeks when the situation will be reviewed again.

​

Lewisham Chess Club apologise to all Members and guests for any inconvenience but obviously it is essential that people in higher risk categories do whatever they can to follow Government and Public Health England advice and protect themselves as best they can.
